[nagdu] walking in sidewalkless areas

[Sarah]

Hi,

Yes, I asked the school for help I am thinking of calling them 
again to tell them I am still having trouble.  I feel as if he 
does not like to work anymore and I'm getting worried.  He's 
onlble 3, he's too young to retire.

Hi Sarah,
I also live in an area without sidewalks, and degree that it can 
be frustrating at times.  I've had my dog Salsa For about a year, 
and she has gotten used to it, but it definitely took some time.  
Have you asked your school for help with this issue? I know mine 
was very helpful in giving me tips to encourage Salsa And help to 
give her confidence as we worked in these kinds of areas.  Good 
luck.

 Hello,

 Yeah, my dog walks very slow and dejected-like when we have to 
do not sidewalks which is every day because that's where our 
neighborhood is.  The only sidewalks are down the main street 
which isn't safe enough to walk because Wizard has a habit of 
veering into the middle of the street.  And I can't see when he 
does this to correct him.

 Oh Sarah!
 Smile came on to my face when I read your e-mail.:)smile:)
 In estonia lots of guide dog users live or visit places-country 
sides where
 there are no sidewalks.  In estonia every  dog is teached to  
walk on the
 left side on the road.  When it is just a road where  are no 
special areas
 for pederastians or for cars.
 But I havent heard that anybody have had any problems with that 
special
 area.  Usually when there are problems then they dont  come out 
at
 sidewalkless roads or in the city.  I mean  I havent heard about 
it.  Usually
 beacuse we have lots of woods and that kind of very natural 
places then dogs
 are just wanting to go very fast beacuse they know that  at the 
end of the
 journey  they will get free and can run around  in the woods and 
play and
 smell  forest animals.:)smile:)
 I know that my dog  doesnt want to work the  roads  what we take 
everyday.
 These are booring for her I think.

 Hello,

 I was wondering if ayever has worked their dogs in sidewalkless
 areas.  I have to because that's where I live, but my guide 
hates
 working sidewalkless.  He walks very slow and bored-like.  I'm
 just wondering if anyone has ever walked sidewalkless teas with
 their guide dogs and how it was.
